Wednesday: yum

I had lunch with Jess today. Hugh managed to get his snacks out of a spill free container for the first time! It was wonderfully warm out too after spending the morning in a cold office. I sit in the draft when the a/c turns on, and it is rather annoying.

So You Think You Can Dance was on tonight. I'm not sure who is going to be in the bottom three - usually I have a guess about at least two, but this time I only have a maybe guess about one person.

Tuesday: Going away party

Today was Luke and Rebekah's going away party at small group. We'll be seeing them several more times before they actually leave, but not many. It's been good having them with us, and I wish them all the best in their new place down south.

The whole group showed up! Twenty people + one baby + one guest = 22 people!! Yay for friends!

Luke and Rebekah with their cake. We brought ice cream too, but it quickly melted. Not before we could eat some though!

Monday: visitors

Travis, Allison, and Scarlet came over for the night. We had pizza, played some games, and watched Scarlet be cute and Flurry be territorial.

Weekend: camping!

This weekend we went camping with our small group. It was a ton of fun, relaxing, and the weather was about perfect. We played some Frisbee, took a walk, visited a castle, and ate good food.

The group:

Ben and Amanda (the only good one of both of us, even if the angle is off)

Thursday: unislander

Today was better than the rest of the week. I got to try out a new piece of equipment which was interesting. I also fixed a piece of equipment all by myself. Sometimes I feel like I'm not very good at fixing things (mainly due to the WIPs and wire twisters), so it was nice to have something work.

We went out with Dusty and Laura for an early weekend meal. I made up a new word: unislander. Here it is used in a sentence (or two): "A bridge is not an unislander. A sand bar could be an unislander."

Wednesday: gum

I tried out a new gum recently. It's Wrigley's React.

I opened the package, and the gum wrappers were black. It was surprising because that's a color that I've never seen before on a gum wrapper. I opened it...the gum was black too! Weird. However, it was quite delicious and the taste lasted pretty long...I expect I'll be getting it again.

Tuesday: hello

Hi.

Still not much to write. Ben mowed the grass. Small group was fun. It is staying light out so long! Time for bed. Maybe something more interesting will happen tomorrow.

Smsnfs...or Amanda.
